An Emerging PacificApproach Sovereignty as Health “Socialization” Communities of Practice Coaching The Viral Approach Regional Mobilization Infrastructure
Sovereignty as Health • Sovereignty: prerequisite to health at all levels • National/Territorial, community, family, individual • Also, regional: • Best managed from the ground up • Secretariats are administrative / programmatic only • Authority resides in Boards • Learning discipline: The “terror” of getting ahead of the Board
Managing Regionalism as Sovereignty: • “No Man’s Land is between: Development Partners & Donors What happens here? (Focus of the 52nd PIHOA MTG) Small recipient countries and territories
No Man’s Land Four “IONS” of managing regional resources: Prioritization Implementation Evaluation Coordination
“Socialization”(Key to health planning) • Health planning is key to managing regionalism • Why the “Vast Cemetary of Health Plans”? • 2010 meeting in Palau on Health Planning resulted in idea of “socialization” • Kuartei, Jim, Finau, Cuboni, Dever, Durand, Maskarinic • Therapy offered to all participants after meeting • “Socialization” – pre-planning work. • Similar to “Readiness to Change” models • “Socialization” must be factored into timeline; takes time. • Example: NCD emergency declaration: Socialization / Alignment tool
The Health Transformation Journey Are we satisfied? (probably no) We are dissatisfied; we want to change. Are we ready to change? Do we have the will to change? How will we change? What does change look like? How will we get there? B A We want to be here. “Our job is to cultivate justifiable discontent” We are here.
The Health Transformation Journey MOHs / DOHs Role: Internal socialization getting to yes / getting to ready: Now we are ready for the traditional planning process - more information gathering and situational analyses, then planning, etc. C Socialization B Strategic Health Plan Dissatisfied ?Ready for change A Now we are ready to start planning PIHOA’s Role: Ongoing technical assistance & consultation PIHOA’s Role: TA, etc
Communities of Practice • Implementation Science: Dissemination & Training alone are ineffective. • Communities of Practice: Sustained engagement, networks of mutual accountability, strategic development • Strength in numbers, can speak corporately what can’t be said alone. Important in Pacific • Much work being done to help COPs do what they are uniquely positioned to do (e.g., standards, education, advocacy, policy) • Provides venue for jealousy factor / viral approach
